‘Reddit can survive without search’: company reportedly threatens to block Google
Reddit is apparently seeking to strike deals with big AI companies.
You're viewing a single thread.
They threaten to saw the branch they sit on.
Btw, greed and jealousy are cancers that eat the brain.
The moment they do this Reddit will collapse.
Very much doubt it but they will lose a lot of causal trade page hits. A lot of finding solutions to things is why I end up.on Reddit now as it only useful result in Google.
But the vast amount of people using it as social.media will stay
It won't just be this but it'll be things like this, further monetization schemes, and eventually killing old.reddit that are gonna keep chipping away at their faithful userbase.
I'm surprised they haven't killed old reddit after all this other BS yet, tbh.
That's because all the admins are using old.reddit themselves.
They can see the numbers for new shit reddit and old reddit. They haven't gotten rid of it because it probably still has a ton of traffic that can display ads. It's extremely obvious that they fucked up with the new design just because the old one has been around for so long
I literally only go to Reddit for videogame questions. I know most normal people only head there when they have specific questions.
You know, the people they can actually show ads to?
